Spring has definitely arrived in our Nation's Capital - the days are in the high teens, the nights staying above zero, the pollen count is up and Floriade is open!

It's perfect weather for getting creative outside, and the last couple of weekends I've been taking advantage and spending some time pottering about in my garden. And you know, I kinda think it's looking pretty nice =)

The bulbs I put in AGES ago are popping up - there's something new flowering just about every day.

The best so far has been the dozens of blue/purple anemones which have been out for a couple of weeks now - this week tiny star flowers have appeared, and most exciting of all our first tulip of the season =)

The past few weeks Wednesday has been movie night chez us (well, Thursday last week - we held off and extra night for the new couch =))

In preparation for our upcoming trip we're both practising our Danish, so tonight's pick was Danish film 'Clash of Egos' (very funny - 6 stars!), which we're following up with an episode or 2 of 'Rejseholdet' (unit one).
